”For we are the aroma of Christ to God among those who are being saved and among those who are
perishing, to one a fragrance from death to death, to others a fragrance from life to life.”  2 Cor. 2:15

O, what a privilege to be
a fragrance for the Lord
in Him triumphant, bold and free
and strong with His own sword!

This fragrance is to some so sweet
or but a smell of death,
press on, though, do the unsaved greet,
don´t feel it´s waste of breath!

And even though the soil is hard
because of unbelief,
I still will distribute my card  *)
so simple and so brief!

You never know what it will do
when breathed upon by Him
who to His word is always true,
though to the blind so dim!

So use what is right in your hand , (Ex. 4:2)
what more does God demand?
And so for Him be bold and stand
ev´n in this godless land!

No matter what, God´s word diffuse
for if you don´t who will?
You are the one God wants to use
with just your gift and skill!

simple message of the cross, which is also the symbol of all the Scandinavian flags.
